Senior captain Logan Wood is now in his fifth year of varsity hockey with the Blue Devil program. Logan, the Blue Devil goalie, is the consummate team player according to LHS boys’ ice hockey coach Frank Mooney.
“Logan is very competitive and always wants to do his best on the ice, but he is also very inclusive to all of our players both varsity and JV levels and is a good role model for our other players,” Mooney said. “Logan has also put in more time into this program than anyone else I have ever coached. Even as an upperclassman, he has continued to go to all JV practices in addition to the varsity ones he normally attends. He has even been willing to play JV games as a senior because we only have one goalie in our program.”
“Overall his dedication to the team and program as a whole is a major reason why he has been named a captain of our team.”
Logan is a lifelong resident of Fitchburg and started playing hockey when he was five years old.
“My dad was on the board for a local hockey team so he signed me up and I started playing,” Logan said.
Logan said he really enjoys getting to play hockey against all the people he knows and has grown up playing against.
“(Here on the LHS team I like) being able to play, learn, and teach with all groups of people who I have played with here at the high school.”
Logan also said he has learned a lot from Coach Mooney over the years.
“My head coach has taught me how to be the most helpful to the other five players on the ice whether it’s playing the puck when needed or communicating an important aspect of the play they might miss,” Logan said.
Logan will attend either Springfield College or the University of New England next year with hopes of playing club or varsity hockey. He wants to study to become an Athletic Trainer.
Logan actually helped out with the football team this past fall working as an aid to the Athletic Trainer. Logan also plays golf and lacrosse here at LHS.
“My favorite classes so far have been Honors Anatomy and Psychology,” Logan said. “My favorite teacher has been Mr. Robichaud.”
Outside of school, Logan likes playing golf, hockey, lacrosse and video games.
